Absolutely, this is a great device for movies. If you subscribe to Netflix or hulu or something like that you can stream shows. You can also dowwnload them or copy them from you desktop or laptop to watch when you don't have a good WiFi connection.

Does not do streaming from online services because it does not have wi-fi nor ethernet connection. It just plays different video, audio, and picture formats from a usb flash drive, usb hard drive, and SD flash cards.

Yes, this device makes its own wireless network. If your movies are on a flash drive, USB external drive or an SD card they can be streamed to your mobile devices. It's very versatile.

Yes, it supports both wired and wireless connections. However, there is the modest but obvious deterioration of video fidelity when using the wireless versus the wired connection. Depending on how picky you are, you may take that into consideration.

No it doesn't have any wifi capability, but it makes a great media player for files from your micro sd card or 4gb built in memory and the video and photo viewing is top notch, hope this helps

Yes. There is an APP for Youtube pre-installed and the Netflix App (among many others) works beautifully. The microHDMI port also allows you connect the Thrive to a compatible monitor or television to watch the items there. WiFi connection is necessary.

Yes, the wifi enablement can upload videos and pictures directly to Youtube and Facebook. You can also upload it to your E-mail account which allows you to acces your E-mail and download it directly to your computer or portable devices. Hope this helps!

Yes, do a search for "Google Chromecast HDMI Streaming Media Player". This provides wireless connectivity to HDMI...

I have a N router and it streams movies from netflix and movies from the HTPC. However, if the unit is a substantial distance from the router, you may need a wireless repeater.

Yes. It will stream Amazon, YouTube, and Hulu also. It will stream Netflix 4K videos and YouTube 4K videos if you have an internet speed of 15Mbps or faster.

I use it to watch Netflix on a TV over HDMI. It works just fine, just make sure you have a decent WiFi connection. YouTube is also fine.

If your asking if this can stream the picture from your tablet to your TV through wifi, probably not, I don't know of any Tablet with WiDi. They are, however, building Miracast support into tablets and phones now. So, the newer Netgear boxes that support miracast could handle that.

If you're asking if it will stream YouTube videos faster than wifi, than the answer is yes...but if you're asking will it help compared to another brand/type of CAT 5 cable than the answer is probably not.
